Chapter 572 Promise
Ever since Zhong Mengfan woke up, Zhong Minghao and Zheng Siling hadn't said a word, let alone gone forward to show concern.
After Zhong Jinghao and Zhong Mengfan disappeared around the corner of the stairs, the couple looked at each other.
Then, Zheng Siling couldn't help but speak, "Nian Yao, this is Meng Fan, isn't it?"
Although she asked this, seeing her arrogant and domineering appearance, she was very sure that this was her daughter. However, with the previous comparison, her mood was still a little complicated for a while.
Zhong Nianyao looked at Zheng Siling, raised her eyebrows, and said with a smile, "Yes! Aunt, you know best what kind of personality your own daughter has. Can't you see whether that was your own daughter just now? Or -"
After a pause, she continued, "Aunt, do you like the person who occupied Zhong Mengfan's body before more?"
After hearing what Zhong Nianyao said, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Zheng Siling's face. "What nonsense are you talking about! How could I have such an idea? That's my own daughter!"
Zhong Nianyao shrugged and said indifferently, "Whatever you say? Like you said, she is your daughter, just figure it out yourself."
Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong, who were standing by, also noticed something.
"Boss, and Si Ling, you'd better figure out which one is your biological daughter." Old Master Zhong spoke directly, "Don't forget, a large part of the reason Meng Fan's personality has become like this is because of your indulgence back then."
"Anyone can dislike Meng Fan, but you two can't."
Madam Zhong also spoke up, "We all know that the fake Meng Fan did a great job in every way. However, she also had ulterior motives. She even repeatedly harmed Yaoyao and instigated others to deal with her. If Yaoyao hadn't noticed, who knows what else she would have done."
"How dare you keep such a venomous snake by your side? Aren't you afraid that one day she will point her knife at you? By then, it will be too late for you to regret it."
After hearing what Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong said, Zhong Minghao and Zheng Siling didn't say anything.
However, both of them seemed to be lost in thought, and no one knew what they were thinking.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhong also knew that they could persuade others on some matters, but whether the other party was willing to listen or accept was beyond their control.
After sighing, the two old men said hello to Zhong Nian Yao and went back to their room to rest.
After the two old people returned to their room, Zhong Nian Yao did not stay any longer, and ignored Zhong Jinghao and Zheng Siling. Without even saying hello, she went straight upstairs to her room to rest.
Although Zhong Mengfan's problem was solved, Zhong Nianyao did not feel relieved. Instead, she was confused because of the words of the fake Zhong Mengfan.
Lying in bed, Zhong Nianyao tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep well. As soon as she closed her eyes, she began to dream, and the dreams she had were all messed up.
When she woke up the next day, Zhong Nian Yao stretched and couldn't help yawning.
She had thought her memory would be fuzzy, but the scenes in the dream were still fresh in her mind. Each scene was as if she had experienced it herself.
For a moment, she could not tell the difference between reality and dreams.
After a moment of trance, Zhong Nianyao came to her senses and quickly got up. She didn't forget that she still had to catch a flight.
After going downstairs and having breakfast, Zhong Nianyao got into Lu Yichen's car and left with the farewell of Mr. and Mrs. Zhong.
Only when the car had completely disappeared from their sight did Mr. and Mrs. Zhong turn around and go back to the house.
In the car——
Zhong Nianyao couldn't help but yawned again, and some physiological tears seeped out of the corners of her eyes.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Zhong Nianyao yawning and looking tired, Lu Yichen reached out and ruffled her hair, then said jokingly with a smile, "What did you do last night? Did you steal something?"
"I'm not a thief, I'm catching a thief." Zhong Nianyao shook her head and said with a smile, "Last night, I did catch a thief who had taken over someone's body, but unfortunately, he still escaped."
After hearing Zhong Nianyao's words, Lu Yichen's expression became more serious, and he immediately asked, "What exactly happened?"
Zhong Nianyao did not hide anything and told everything that happened last night.
After listening to Zhong Nianyao's narration, Lu Yichen couldn't help but frown, "You really don't know who that person is?"
"I don't know!" Zhong Nianyao shrugged and continued, "From beginning to end, I never got to see that person's true face. However, I could sense her hostility towards me, or perhaps it would be more accurate to say hatred! She hated me deeply."
After Lu Yichen pondered for a moment, he said, "I'm afraid this matter is not so easy to resolve. We don't know who that person is, and we can't deal with her at all."
"There's nothing we can do about it." Zhong Nianyao was somewhat helpless. "We don't even know her name, let alone find her. However, the person she wants to deal with is me. I don't believe she will just let it go. This time, she's lucky. If there's a next time, I will definitely not let her get away so easily."
Lu Yichen nodded, then looked at Zhong Nianyao, his eyes full of seriousness, "Yao'er, I want you to promise me that if you really find any trace of that person, you are not allowed to act alone. You must tell me."
"ha?"
After hearing Lu Yichen's words, Zhong Nianyao was stunned for a moment, then after seeing Lu Yichen's serious look, she nodded and said, "Okay, I'll remember it."
Then, she took Lu Yichen's hand, smiled and said coquettishly, "Don't continue to criticize me. I'm not a child anymore. I know what to do."
"Besides, others may not know what kind of abilities I have, but you should know them too! No matter who they are, they will definitely not have a good ending in my hands."
Looking at Zhong Nianyao's appearance, Lu Yichen couldn't help but reach out his hand and patted her head lightly, with a helpless look on his face. "You! Anyway, just remember what you promised me."
